Jeremy Wright writes a piece over at the Wealthy Blogger about actually having multiple jobs within one job as a ProBlogger – something I was only speaking to a friend about yesterday. He writes:
‘My real secret is that my dream job isn’t just one job. Currently, I hold the following “positions” at “Jeremy Wright, Inc.”:
1. Blogger
2. Consultant
3. Author
4. Courseware developer
5. Speaker / Trainer
6. WriterAnd I do these in areas such as time management, personal finance, blogging, communications, marketing and technology.’
I’d add to the list of jobs that I’m increasingly finding myself doing things like:
- Accounting/Bookkeeping
- Marketing
- Sales
- Public Relations
In a sense being a sole trader blogger is like any other small business where you end up doing any and every aspect of your business. At times this can be incredibly stretching – at other times its tempting to ignore the parts you don’t naturally gravitate towards – but overall I’m finding it to be a rich experience and one that I hope is adding to what I have to offer in future ventures (blogging and otherwise).
